It is the members responsibility to contact operations coordinator to schedule construction.
Installation typically takes up to 15 business days after phase 3 is completed. Outages or weather may increase this time.
South Central Power's construction crews will come to the site and install facilities as designed and leave the member's site ready for final restoration by the member.
Our crew or contractor may contact OUPS to mark all underground public utilities such as electric, gas, communications, etc.
We will supply easement forms, but the member project or construction manager is responsible for gathering signatures as required for the installation.
We may require some vegetation clearing at the owners expense.
We are not responsible for damages to any unmarked private or public owned facilities.

Upon request, a field engineer will meet with you on-site to discuss options.
Next, we will perform a site visit and design the most economical route for electric service installation, place stakes marking the proposed route, and determine members cost as well as other responsibilities.
Major changes to this design may result in job delays and extra fees.
